Hi,
The port has been upgraded, but the instructions have not.
/usr/ports/net/etherboot/pkg-descr says:
To produce an etherboot floppy (or HD partition) do
cd work/etherboot/src
cat bin/boot1a.bin bin/<device>.zrom > /dev/fd0
Replace <device> with the specific code for your card, and /dev/fd0
with your hard disk partition.
However, these appear to be wrong instructions to create the floppy.
After doing the make in /usr/ports/net/etherboot,
work/etherboot-5.2.4/src/bin/boot1a.bin
work/etherboot-5.2.4/src/bin/<device>.zrom
do not exist, but instead these do exist:
work/etherboot-5.2.4/src/bin/<device>.img
work/etherboot-5.2.4/src/bin/<device>.zimg
What am I suppose to do with these files?
When I do 'make install', I get this message:
Refer /usr/ports/net/etherboot/pkg-descr and
/usr/ports/net/etherboot/work/etherboot-5.2.4_1/doc
for how to build and install the rom/floppy image.
But /usr/ports/net/etherboot/work/etherboot-5.2.4_1/doc
does not exist.
Rob.
